NEW YORK, March l5-The stock
market YVES much duler to-day, but with
the exception Of q few minutes in the
early morning, presented q firm front,
and for the most part the losses Of yes
terday were generally recovered. There
was very little hammering of stocks, and
considerable covering Of shorts w&S in
dulged in, but the chief element in i'm
provement was the buying by foreign
houses. Other influences favorable to
higher prices were the decline in sterling
exchange rates, and the vague rumOrs of
q renewal Of negotiations IN Baltimore

ELEVEN YEAS.
Total II yrs .s7s sc. sos s2,152, lsa, 200

From this table it will be seen
that during the last eleven years no
less than 1913 railway companies with
an aggregate mileage OF 36,698 miles
and an apparent capital stock aud
bonded Indebtedness Of 81, 1852, l9S,7C0
have travelled the disastrous road of
bankruptcy and forced sale, which has
wiped out the entire interest of
many OF the proprietors and COM
PEELED ths Others to accept new securi-
lies and frequently to advance mere
money in order to start the property
on new career. These tables repre-
sent more than 28 per cent. of the en-
tire railway mileage Of the country at
the commencement OF 1885, and more
than % per cent. of the total stock
and bonded indebtedness at the same
date.
While the number of roads sold
during the year is very great, al
though it has been surpassed in three
previous years, the mileage represent
I'd is more than double that OF any
year except 1879 al d far greater THAI
in that year, while the stock and debt
total is far larger than in any other
year and nearly so per cent, more
than in 1885. These enormous az
Rregates are due partly to the fact that
several very large companies are in
cluded in the list, the principal being
the following: Denver aud Rio
Grande, with 1917 miles and over $685.
100000 OF obligations; Lake Erie and
WesterH, representing 387 mic and
over $l5, 900, 600; two divisions Of the
Texas and st. Louis, representing 430
miles and nearly $1,000, 600; the
great Wabash, ST. Louis and Pacific,
which after losing many Of its leased
lines, which themselves have been
foreclosed and appear separately in
the table, represents 2l12 miles and
$72,000,0O0; the E ist Tennessee, Vir-
Rinia and Georgia, with 1857 miles
aud $70,000,000, and the Louisville,
Evansville and st. Louis, with 253
miles and about $14 900. 600.
This showing Of bankruptcy would
be alarming in the extreme II there
were no evidence Of improvement.
Happily, however, such evidence is
given in the fact that the number Of
new receiveIships shows very great
decrease, only thirteen roads, with an
aggre gate mileage of 1900 miles aud
capital and bonded debt Of about &c.,
100000, having been placed in the
charge Of receivers. This is very
encouraging improvement over the
two previous years, as the appended
comparative figures taken fIom our
previous records will show.
Quite a number Of roads still in the
hands OF receivers will be sold during
the present year, so that the fore
closure record for 1885 will BIS pain
fully large; but there is good reason
to hope that unless unwise national
and Safe legislation shall interfere in
the legitimate management of railway
properties the number OF defaults
during the present year will be small.
II, however, competitive railway build
ing continues to go on at the rate at
which il is now proceeding 1t is not
unlikely that a new era OF bankruptcy
will eventually follow.

sppeal from the decision.
The Judge in his decision said that
he was clearly Of the opinion that
conspiracy designed 10 hinder any
man from putting his labor on the
market, when, whtre and for such
compensation Is he may agree for, is
equally criminal with any conspiracy
designed to hinder the sale OF the
merchandise Of any producer or deal
or, and is more disastrous in effect
than any other form Of conspiracy,
except to take life. To couvirt of such
conspiracy circuUsiantisl evidsnce is
competent and may be conclusive. 1t
is sufficient II Il Is shown that the
parties had a mutual understanding
to the common design and the part
esch was to perform in the attainment
thereof. The Court WAS satisfied that
Wallace and 0pdyke had q mutual
understanding that q man not ap,
proved by one should not be employed
by the other. This was - ell lntents
